The Singapore-listed company sold the project's underlying coal asset to the Adani Group in August 2012 and now holds an inflation-indexed A$2 per tonne royalty for production from the Carmichael Coal Mine.

Assuming Adani meets its predicted peak production target of 60 million tonnes per year, the royalty payable to Linc Energy would generate approximately A$133 million a year in revenue for Linc Energy.
